Day 1 was a barn burner. I personally think Day 2 was fine, but not to the same level. We’ll see where day 3 takes us!
Scheduled speakers:
"As is customary, Harris’s running mate will take to the podium on day three.
Tim Walz will formally accept the party’s nomination just 15 days after he was unveiled as Harris’s pick, completing his whirlwind rise to international fame.
The day’s other high-profile speakers will include 42nd president Bill Clinton, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
Former VP hopefuls Transport Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro will also take to th stage, along with Maryland Governor Wes Moore, Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy and Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar.
Another Republican, Georgia Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan, is set to join the speaking roster."

She literally had a chance to speak, man she getting worried they gonna cancel her?
She’s not Palestinian American and is asking for someone who is to have a chance to speak. AOC gave her speech Monday night when negotiations between the uncommitted delegates and Harris campaign for a Palestinian American speaker were still ongoing, but those talks broke down Wednesday.
So this morning I saw the difference in the roll call for the RNC vs. DNC.
RNC: lifeless, drab, and such low energy it was like a funeral.
DNC: that was a full bore party from beginning to end.
The playlist for the roll call was pretty interesting.
What was truly interesting was how the DNC had permission to use all those songs, while the RNC and Trump absolutely did not, and artists are constantly demanding he never use theirs.
I did not expect my state to pick Modest Mouse… I’d have gone with Everclear:
I’m glad Massachusets chose Dropkick Murpheys though.
Let us hope that Bill Clinton’s participation will be limited to playing a short song on the saxophone and then walking off stage.
The less visibility the DNC has with anyone associated with Epstein, the better.
Sax Honk. Lip bite. Gentle thumbs-up pump. Walks off.
He read this comment and tripled the length of his speech.
God I picked a shit time to tune in. They should have gone with the sax.
This just in, 4 Federal Indictments on Hakeem Jeffries for killing it.
It is so fucking weird to be listening to politicians while playing video games and being more annoyed by them being “cringe” than terrified over living in Gillead come February.
Let’s keep it fucking going.
Bill: I’ve been every one of these since '76…no…'72, lord I’m getting old.
Lol
72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96,
00, 04, 08, 12, 16, 20, 2414 conventions. 52 years.
The Obamas are going to be tough act to follow. Last night was a reminder that their writing / public speaking skills are on another level. I’m not surprised they’re producers know. They know how to tell a compelling story.
They were good, but I still think Clinton and Warnock from the day prior were the superstars.
Playing catch up, I was out running errands. I heard most of Jeffries, some of Clinton and Oprah and all of Walz.
What do you think were the highlights? I didn’t see Clinton, but he sounded rough!
Walz was the highlight I thought. He really is a great speaker. There wasn’t one wasted word in the speech, and the way his kids were so damn happy for him really highlighted the key difference between the two sides.
Jeffries was also pretty great.
Hard to imagine not tearing up watching Gus Walz. When he stood up crying and said, “That’s my dad!” it hit me right in my dad brain.
Yes, I’m not even a dad, but it hit me too.
I’m not sure what made me feel older, how rough he sounded, or him dropping a self-deprecating McDonald’s joke. Talk about a throwback.
I like listening to Pete Bootyjudge
Are we getting a Day 4 thread?
Yeah, I’ve been busy today, getting it going now!
Chris Cuomo actually doing real journalism tonight at the DNC: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C-9ZjCKgRro/
I highly, highly encourage everyone to watch the film Bulworth.
California Senator has a breakdown, hires someone to kill himself, but before that happens…
(NSFW)
Oprah said she’s a registered independent.
Ryan Grim and Medhi Hassan confirm:
The DNC has told the Uncommitted delegates that no Palestinian will be allowed to speak from the stage, even with a vetted speech
Just like when they shut out Bernie.
The Bernie Blackout
The party will pretend Palestinians don’t exist until they actually don’t exist.

People will find a reason to not vote Democrat until the party no longer exists
And as always, the assumption that any objection to genocide means a childish refusal to vote.
Have you considered that the Israeli propaganda apparatus is powerful enough to give the election to Trump, given a flick of a switch?
We have to continue supporting genocide because you’ve bought the bigoted conspiracy theory that The Jews control everything? Congratulations on the single worst possible excuse for supporting genocide. Please, no one come up with a worse one.
Every one of you silly fucks need to sit down and shut the fuck up
Centrism has no other message. None.
LMFAO deleting the comment only proves the point, and your butchery of my comment is the icing
Since they deleted it, I very specifically said “until after the Democrats are elected”.
Because if these people really thought the Republicans were going to listen, they would have protested at the RNC. Did they protest at the RNC?
Also, Using the killnet
Also, one link Could bring more simple ones
You say one bad thing against Israel, and now Im the bot, huh? Maybe use some foresight? Maybe hurting the Democrats is literally hurting yourselves? If Trump wins, I’m not thinking of Gazans. I’m thinking of you. Of all those people on campuses and storming the DNC of all fucking places to wipe their asses, instead of getting with the program so their voices can be heard like everyone else.
Since they deleted it, I very specifically said “until after the Democrats are elected”.
We both know centrists’ insistence on silence won’t end there or ever.

You don’t care if Democrats win; you just want someone to blame for any losses.
